Japan's Most Hardcore Xbox Fan
Merry Christmas! This remarkable photo surfaced on Japanese mega-message board 2ch today, the Xbox 360 setup of an anonymous fan wishing you very happy holidays indeed. The significance of the strawberry cake, fried chicken and "Chanmery" non-alcoholic champagne is cultural: As a proper Japanese citizen, the above items must be consumed on Christmas Day, without exception. The story goes that Western Christmas turkey was substituted for with Kentucky Fried Chicken, as it was the closest available equivalent.
But we digress. Look at the ten 360s, yo! That's every limited edition console that ever came out in Japan, plus an Elite. And the ill-fated HD-DVD drive, now reduced to serving as a cake tray. Every released Japanese 360 game! Two iDOLM@STER limited editions! A Gradriel doll (from Saturn classic Princess Crown) thrown in for good measure!
We tip our hats to you, faceless Japanese Xbox fan. You're fighting the good fight, in a land that's keeping you down. Merry Christmas... you've earned it.
